Nature, which many people consider you have confused with each other"

2) Spinoza Michael della rocca
II. 5. Neccessitarianism
"For Spinoza, there is no contingency and all things are absolutely
necessary. this is Spinoza's thesis of necessitarianism" (70)
"Because God is the only substance, it follows that all things depend on or
are determined by god"(70)
Spinoza discussed in 1p21d whether a finite mode can follow from God`s
nature considered absolutely, and he rejects the possibility precisely
because a finite mode can follow from God`s nature only insofar as another
finite mode of the same kind also follows from God`s nature (70)
To say that it follows non-absolutely carriers no implications whatsoever as
to whether God is not the complete account of the modes. It is, of course,
perfectly compatible with God's causing a mode as part of package that God
completely causes that mode (71)
"God may be the complete cause of the infinitely many modes he cause
only as part of a package. And we will see that Spinoza holds precisely this
view" (71)
